Scumbria, re: Grammar schools et al My experience has been fairly varied as well. My son went to challenger private school for two years which was excellent but too challenging for him. We put him in public school next - where he learnt nothing all year. He then went to private school for 2 yrs which was OK. We moved to a better area. He then went to an excellent public school for grades 5 and 6. Grade 7 was a middle school which sucked. So he is now in grade 8 and in private school which is pretty good - unfortunately it is a christian school. I went to a grammar school in UK too - which my poor parents scraped and saved to send me to- which i hated at the time, but now appreciate much more. I have nothing against private schools. I see no way that vouchers are gonna solve the "education" problem in US. regards, Kash
